ABSTRACT

This article, through it’s examination of the spatial location reference in Modern Chinese and Korean, explores the basic theory of location reference from the perspective of Cognitive Linguistics. Spatial relations are the most important and basic relations in the objective world. Korean and Chinese belong to different types of language, but there are the words of locality in both languages to express the spatial relations. However there are some similarities and differences because of the different types of language and cognitive styles. In using the method of contrastive linguistics, this article describes and contrasts the similarities and differences of Korean and Chinese spatial relations on the both-way. And with the usage of cognitive functionalism for reference, the paper explains the similarities and differences.
